The draft Law of the Republic of Armenia “On State Registration of Rights to Property” introduces new and clearer regulations for the correction of errors in cadastral maps of real estate.

The draft addresses cases where the registered data does not correspond to the actual condition of the property or to the documents that served as the basis for registration. Such errors may relate to linear dimensions, surface area, geometric shape, boundary location, the property’s purpose, or information on the owner.

The correction process may be initiated by the owner or right holder through a qualified surveyor, who files an application and the required documentation, including a measurement package, a situation plan combined with orthophotos, and relevant protocols.

During the measurement process, there is a mandatory notification requirement for all adjacent property owners and right holders.

The Cadastre Committee of the Republic of Armenia conducts administrative proceedings and issues a final administrative act, which serves as the legal basis for making or declining the relevant corrections in the state registration data and/or the cadastral map.

This legislative initiative is an important step toward enhancing the accuracy of property data, protection of property rights, and prevention of disputes.
